[to the QOL community, let me first appologize for a recent display of stupid texting... but please read on] Dears Dr. May and Mr. Taylor, Just recently (about 30 minutes ago), Donald Trump was welcomed to the stage of the Republican National Convention over "We Are The Champions", to introduce his wife, the keynote speaker of the night. I don't want any more "we'll look into that"'s or "we don't get into politics"'s sort of answer. As a Queen fan for over 30 years, I know Queen could never stand for Trump - moreover, I am certain Freddie would never stand for such a homofobe, mysoginist, and hater in general. All I ask is that you deny any connection with his campaingn and demand royalties for the use of the song - and, hopefully, find a way to stop him from ever using any of your material again. It is just plain offensive that a man such as him should ever be linked to the most wonderful music ever made. Sincerely, Bruno. |
goose44 18.07.2016 22:00 |
Shut up Bruno Donald Trump is no homophobe you pos. You don't know the man personally and he has never done anything to disparage the gay community ever. |

Ok... just go explain that to the families of the victims in Orlando... (as when he stated something probably was going on in that club to warrant a crazy ass***e to go in there and shoot them up) - or: just any other thing he's ever said... |

The choice between Trump and Clinton is dire. They both have a hume amount of bad points, and are possibly the worst contenders in US history. I wouldn't want Trump to use Queen's music any more than I'd want Clinton. |

Brian is not amused link Whether a person is your candidate or not, he did not seek permission. After being told not to, he did so again anyway. Mike Huckawantabee ended up paying Survivor around 25K due to playing 'Eye of the Tiger' without their permission, and doing so after being told 'no'. |

Ithis thread clearly points out his mind set, in using a song which he doesn't have the writers, publishers or performers permission to use but he does so anyway. . . Take that attitude and apply it to running a country, take that attitude and apply it to interaction on a political stage with other countries. .

Trump's not an idiot (sadly) - he's a fucking asshole. He knew he didn't have permission to use the song, so he went right ahead and used it anyway. All it will lead to is more publicity for the douche bag, which is exactly what he wants. He could care less about having to give up money after the fact. That said I'm of course hoping he has to, if only to see more money headed Brian and Roger's way. |

thomasquinn 32989 20.07.2016 13:30 |
If you think Obama was one of the worst presidents ever, you quite simply don't know too many presidents. To name just a few TERRIBLE presidents: Franklin Pierce, James Buchanan, Andrew Johnson, Warren Harding, Herbert Hoover. There are at least twenty thoroughly mediocre presidents you've never heard of. Obama will be ranked at or near the top of the second quintile or the bottom of the first quintile, no doubt whatsoever. As to Trump - he's a professional con-artist. His many bankruptcies and his many fake businesses (Trump University, Trump Steak...), his close mafia ties in Atlantic City (there was a whole book published in the '90s about his ties to the Genovese mafia family. Trump sued for libel but couldn't win), his track record of making stuff up as he goes along on the campaign trail, flat-out contradicting himself from night to night, his refusal to publish his tax records and his constant flirtations with the extreme right, from refusing to disavow David Duke (and pretending not to know him when he had distanced himself from Duke a few years before) to using an anti-Hillary graphic harvested from a neo-nazi anti-semitic website - he is a flat-out crook. I'm 100% sure that he doesn't believe in the inflamatory BS he's peddling, but he's only too glad to exploit a sucker. And suckers there are a-plenty, and they're falling in line behind Trump en masse. Even if he won, what would he do? Half 'his' party doesn't support him, and the Democrats surely won't lift a finger to help him out. That'd be a FOUR YEAR lame-duck presidency instead of a few months! |
queen79luca 20.07.2016 13:56 |
Obama was welcomed as something new and fresh. I think with some intellectual honesty the results are not so good as thought. Say no to Trump just for political view I think it s poor to be honest If u like political correctness ..I Don t thanks Regarding Queen and Watc they do what they want with their music. |

queen79luca wrote: Personally I think Obama was one of the worst Us president ever..Authorized the military operation that resulted in the death of Osama bin Laden in 2011. Banned gifts from lobbyists to anyone in the Executive Branch. Improved the Freedom of Information Act and issued new guidelines to make FOIA more open and transparent when processing FOIA requests. In 2010, more jobs were created than had been created during Bush’s eight years. Ordered all federal contractors to pay a minimum wage of $10.10 per hour, leading the way to a national increase. As of January 2016, a record 64 consecutive months of overall job growth. Oversaw a reduction in the federal budget deficit by two-thirds since taking office. Ordered 65 executives who took bailout money to cut their own pay until they paid back all bailout money. Put an end to "don't ask, don't tell" Thanks to the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, inflation in the healthcare sector dropped to its lowest point in 50 years (and about 30 million more people have health care now).

I am honestly starting to doubt whether he believes he can win. Choosing Mike Pence as a running mate will please those who would've voted Republican regardless, but is unlikely to bring in anyone who's an independent or a conservative Democrat. The whole campaign is messy, and the convention is chaotic in a way that hasn't been seen since the '68 Democratic convention. Flukes like his wife blatantly plagiarizing Michelle Obama and Ted Cruz giving a speech in which he refuses to explicitly endorse Trump would be unthinkable in any normal year. The shady far-right references in his campaign so far won't do him any good except with his unconditional base, and his failure to outline ANY concrete policies (plus his tendency to promise contradictory things) will not attract independents, who cast the deciding votes in important swing states in every election. If (when?) Trump loses, it won't hurt him - he can lay the blame elsewhere, and strengthen his 'brand' much like other right wing populists who consistently lose do (Geert Wilders!). I would not be surprised if this whole campaign is a business move to attract free publicity and a politicized consumer base. We know for a fact that a large part of the campaign finances flow right back into Trump's coffers through payments to businesses of his (he's essentially laundering his own money), so the campaign isn't costing him as much as would appear at first sight. His business ventures had been doing rather poorly for a number of years, so this might just be a marketing move - that would explain the extreme amount of 'advertising' for his products he snuck into his campaign so far. If Trump loses, that might be just as dangerous as Trump winning. His voter-base is susceptible to conspiracy theories, to which he frequently resorts and will believe they have been cheated. That could cause a reaction not entirely unlike Southern "massive resistance" to Kennedy/Johnson turning out more pro-Civil Rigths than the South had thought. |

Just what I want: a bipolar, narcissistic egomaniacal bully, with a firm grasp of reality, who gets his news from The National Enquirer (or Weekly World News). Failed businesses, four bankruptcies, mob ties, Mike Tyson's former manager, 'let's give more countries nukes' and then 'we'll nuke ISIS'. Yup, I've always loved his knowledge of the world. |

I haven't said anything about the way I think or what my political leanings are. All I did was counter your ill-informed partisan talking point about food stamps by providing facts. All you are left with is a feeling that I'm wrong, but it's not informed by any kind of verifiable evidence. This mentality of seeing only two "sides" is the product of country with a two party system, whereby one is convinced that there are only two possible ways for one to think (i.e. "not my way" = one giant umbrella of "wrong"). Nowhere have I stated or inferred my inability to accept "arguments or beliefs other than mine." Nobody with an IQ over 90 will fall for such a simplistic and predictable straw man argument. I don't have a problem with ambiguity of ideas. I have a problem when people peddle misinformation as if it were facts. Let's quote Isaac Asimov: “Anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that 'my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.'” You've received about three minutes of my time. If you wish to have any more, then simply put forth an argument worth defending, and maybe we can have a healthy exchange of ideas. |

Did you even click on the youtube link? George Carlin is definitely against the PC of liberals, and he even clearly states that liberals use PC to discourage free speech of those they disagree with. Watch and listen closely to the 8 minute video (particularly the first 90 seconds). |
